{"product_id":"john-kasper-and-ezra-pound-alec-marsh-9781350028401","title":"John Kasper and Ezra Pound: Saving the Republic","description":"John Kasper was a militant far-right activist who first came to prominence with his violent campaigns against desegregation in the Civil Rights era. Ezra Pound was the seminal figure in Anglo-American modernist literature and one of the most important poets of the 20th century. This is the first book to comprehensively explore the extensive correspondence - lasting over a decade and numbering hundreds of letters - between the two men.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eJohn Kasper and Ezra Pound\u003c\/i\u003e examines the mutual influence the two men exerted on each other in Pound's later life: how John Kasper developed from a devotee of Pound's poetry to an active right-wing agitator; how Pound's own ideas about race and American politics developed in his discussions with Kasper and how this informed his later poetry. Shedding a disturbing new light on Ezra Pound's committed engagement with extreme right-wing politics in Civil Rights-era America, this is an essential read for students of 20th-century literature.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Alec Marsh\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1350028401\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781350028401\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Publishing PLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/23\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 320\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.99lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.67d","brand":"Alec Marsh","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44064349126911,"sku":"9781350028401","price":51.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_138831e8-aa23-45ad-a9ce-79830d570161.jpg?v=1685394954","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/john-kasper-and-ezra-pound-alec-marsh-9781350028401","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
